NEVER mind if the media guesting fell on a late Saturday afternoon.

In an interview with veteran host Ely Saludar on the program "IBalita Weekend Report," Aquino emphasized that PhilHealth will be introducing fixed benefit rates for at least 11 medical illnesses and 11 surgical procedures to help contain the cost of health care services. He added that the new rates will hopefully be released before the end of the second quarter, after fine-tuning activities are completed.
